For all intents and purposes, Drake Maye enjoyed a strong rookie season with the New England Patriots. With the team winning just four games during the season, though, it was clear that changes needed to be made.
One of those changes involved overhauling their offensive system from 2024 and implementing a new one. That meant moving on from Alex Van Pelt as the offensive coordinator and bringing Josh McDaniels back to town to fill that role.
McDaniels will be working closely with Maye, but so will new quarterbacks coach Ashton Grant. After spending five seasons working as an assistant with the Cleveland Browns, new Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel brought him aboard to work with Maye.
